THE STATE Reform Party (STAR) has described Joseph Pairin Kitingan's praises on the achievements of Chief Minister Musa Aman as hollow and an insult to the natives especially the Kadazandusuns.
STAR's chairman, Dr Jeffrey Kitingan, said there is a huge contradiction between what Pairin attributed to Musa as best CEO and the realities on the ground.
"Here Pairin is glorifying Musa as a caring Chief Minister and being best CEO of Sabah for nine years but look at the pathetic situation ourselves and the state are in.
"The only achievements of Barisan Nasioal (BN) are in making Sabah the poorest state and added in more illegal immigrants here," he said at the launching of STAR's division of Beaufort which encompassed Kuala Penyu and Klias state constituencies here yesterday.
Dr Jeffrey was commenting on a newspapers report two days ago where Pairin, also a deputy chief minister and PBS president, heaping praises on his boss Musa at the launching of a book on the latter by the Yang di-Pertua Negeri, Juhar Mahiruddin.
Holding copies of Borneo Post and Daily Express, Dr Jeffrey said on the frontpage of Borneo Post was Pairin's glorifying Musa's achievement, but on the same page was a big story complaining Musa's government for not heeding the repeated calls for help by local timber mills which had run out of raw timber supplies as round logs continued to be exported by-passing domestic timber mills.
"Praising Musa by Pairin is nothing but hollow. Just look at the number of locals who had not been given Malaysian birth certificates and MyKads until now in comparison with the 40,000 children of immigrants who were swiftly given them in Semporna alone," he lamented.
He also alleged that under Musa and UMNO, Sabah has lost more rights and more taxes to the Federal Government.
He said last year alone, the Federal collected RM22.7 billion in taxes alone, but very little was given back to the state.
"This is not yet accounting other revenues including oil and gas derived from Sabah...so what achievement?" he said.
He also belittled the 1Malaysia slogan by saying it is more apt to call it 'syarikat didahulukan' and not 'people first'.
"Look at your land applications, how many years you have been waiting but no approval, they don't even process them, but companies can get their approval from this government in no time," he claimed.

Pairin Is Nothing But Hollow?
About sabahdaily
pairin hanya layak jd jurucakap UMNgOk shj, chow loo...
ReplyDeleteI believe Pairin is entitled for his own opinions, this is his freedom of speech. Whether or not others agreed or believed him is their own freedom.
ReplyDeleteThe State government has requested the Land and Survey Department to improve their approval process for land applications so that the people need not wait too long for their applications to be approved. The NCR land will also be resolved after the State government has seek the opinion from the component party leaders as well as experts in the NCR issue.
ReplyDeleteThe 40,000 immigrants children alleged are still not yet identified as whether they are illegals or Malaysian. And the number of population is not in Semporna alone, only 4,000 of unregistered children in Semporna while the rest are throughout Sabah.
ReplyDeleteBesides, Musa Aman's brother Anifah Aman has requested the NRD to stop giving out approval for the unregistered folks until the issue can be investigated by the RCI. This was backed up by Sairin and Kurup. NRD should consider this suggestion from Anifah.
ReplyDeleteAhli STAR nanti pun jangan puji Jeffrey sebab memuji ketua tu salah.
ReplyDeletePairin puji Musa sebab nampak hasil kerja beliau. Ahli STAR nak puji Jeffrey pasal apa? Menang bercakap?
ReplyDeletetak salah Pairin puji Musa kerana byk juga pembangunan Musa lakukan pada Sabah.
ReplyDeleteapa salahnya Pairin memuji musa yang mana memang benar pun?
ReplyDeleteJK selama bergiat dalam politik, apa yang dilakukan? setakat ini hanyalah cakap2 saja sana sini...tiada yang jadi realiti...yang ahli Star puji2 JK pasal apa? benda belum pun ada sudah mahu dipujikah?..
ReplyDeleteWhy couldn't Pairin praise Musa Aman? I believe Star members also praises Jeffrey even though Jeffrey never done anything. Even Rahman Dahlan, Shafie Apdal and Rahim Ismail is supporting Musa. The people can tell who are the leaders that is right for them, and they will show it during the next General Elections.
ReplyDeleteINI KALI LAH!!! Sokong ASALKAN BUKAN UMNO/BN - ABU!!!
ReplyDeleteBerubahlah rakyat Sabah!!!

ReplyDeletesudah tua bah,macam kereta,pemiliknya sering puji kenderaan yang dimilikinya tapi kenderaan tersebut sering terhenti di tengah jalan tapi ia masih memuji bahawa kenderaan nya adalah yang terbaik sedang kan sudah mengeluar asap putih dan membahaya kan orang ramai,jadi begitu lah si Pairin ini memuji orang sedangkan dalam diam yang dipuji terlalu membahaya kan bangsa sabah secara perlehan-lahan maka wahai orang sabah fikir-fikirlah kesan nya dimasa akan datang,cuba tanya kepada suku sakat si musa,mereka akan berkata bahawa musa dan pairin lah yang memajukan sabah,tapi cuba bayangkan berapa sudah Tanah -tanah kita yang telah dirampas oleh dua kroni ini...mahu lagi kamu mengundi manusia ini...fikir-fikir lah
ReplyDeleteSemenjak Musa sebagai CM, Sabah buat pertama kalinya mempunyai simpanan tunai melebihi 3 bilion. Disamping itu Sabah menikmati pembangunan pesat termasuk pembangunan modal insan. Jeffery sudahlah engkau melolong terima saja hakikat bahawa berlambak lagi ilmuan Sabah yang setanding dengan kamu malah lebih ramai lagi yang hebat daripada kamu. Jeffery ini sudah lambat bertindak, bukankah rakyat Sabah sudah beri peluang kepada kamu untuk bekerja untuk kemajuan Sabah namun akhirnya kamu kecundang akibat tindakan yang kamu sendiri lebih tahu. HIDUP BN TETAP MENANG PRU -13.
ReplyDeleteSTAR- (SABAH TETAP AKAN REBAH)di tangan BN (BARISAN NAIK)
ReplyDeletePairin berjuang untuk penduduk Sabah bukannya untuk KDM saja. Saya percaya Pairin tidak menyebelahi mana-mana pihak. Yang pasti KDM menjadi keutamaan beliau. Namun beliau berjuang untuk semua.
ReplyDeletemestilah Pairin puji ketua dia.. takkan dia mahu puji Anwar pula.. pemimpin2 pembangkang pun puji ketua parti masing2.. so tidak ada apa2 yang perlu dijadikan isu disini hanya kerana Pairin puji Musa..
